Canada and Mexico aren't weaker though. Everybody is just making new partners, better and stronger alliances and USA is going to be left on the sidelines like an aged hooker.

Canada and Mexico having to scramble with the world economy makes them weaker right now.

The whole west is weaker now because of trump's moves. Yes, other countries will find other new allies and drop the US but that doesn't stop the trump admin selectively attacking these former allies with not just more economic wars via sanctions but also military actions.

Dude, Europe is already preparing for war. Most countries are back to everybody doing military service. Germany auto makers are already making military vehicles.

China can supply the world on military good while old factories are being upgraded. It will not take as long as you might think to get up to par.

The world has done it multiple times. They are well aware and not biting their nails in fear at the loss of the traitors.

You're all over the place here. Acting like this is no big deal? I don't know what your argument is but to not fear another world war is pretty dumb.

Still don't know what your point is. None of what I'm saying you will find on fox news.

I am in no way backing trump.

Their point is they're be owing stronger in opposition to your argument that they're becoming weaker.
